Yep. biggrin

I'm just getting to grips with some of the history of this car. Harsh was regailing the story of how it came known as the Fezda. Fezzdaghini is a new one.... And now I'm wondering if I made a mistake by buying it off Adrian. Sounds like that car has had an interesting life. scratchchin

I've only heard the stories but it's much loved and didn't seem to struggle at the weekend. I'm sure it'll be good for keeping up en route to the Sunday Service - at least you won't need to worry about having the rear seats folded (sorry Dizeee wink)

I reckon the Thames Valley lot should aim to get there pretty early because to get breakfast last time we were stuck in the biggest queue ever which ran from the top floor of the station cafe, spiralled down the stairs, out the door and down the road.

Kinky and Ben will vouch for the length of the queue I'm sure!

lol, that is a bit wee, is it on google map again? If so you can just post up the linky can't you.

Re breakfast, I didn't even bother there last time due to the queue (and that's says a lot, cos I like me food) - what about an earlyish start, drive for around 1.5hrs, brekkie on route somewhere (proper sit down get served job which is nicer anyway) and then finish off the last bit of the journey. If we have eaten then doesn't matter so much if we are not there till say 10 or even 11 does it?

I agree TC would make sense and allow for a better run over.

Well they say these things last until about 1pm, but everyone seems to leave at about 11am.

To be honest it was a good breakfast and I managed to get in just before the queue got too horrendous.

To be honest, so long as we have a good drive and a nice breakfast I will just go with the rest of the crowd. smile

Is that list booking a parking space though? It'll be first come first served will it not? Better make sure we get there fast evil

This event seems to be getting a lot of coverage so might be worth being discreet about the itinerary.
p.s. On the brekkie thing, I agree with TC.. would be good to find a venue en-route to have some grub.
